Flying Dog Horn Dog Barley Wine

bottle, brewed 3/08, amber color with no head , malty nose with not much flavor , a little chocolate and cherry, structured ok but missing a punch for a bw

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear deep brown with a dark tanned head. Nose with caramels and chocolate and hoppy side-notes. Taste is round and sweet with nutty notes and burned malts. The finish is clearly alcohol-like... maybe too much but with nice hoppy notes.

Meeeting at DØ, Aarhus Syd, DK. Bottled, 151008. Brown with small head. Aroma of malt, chocolate and hop spices. Flavor is caramel, roasts, some grapefruit, liqourice and alcohol

Poured a nuttty brown with virtually no head. Some yeast sediment noted. Heavy aroma of sweet malt with a note of chocolate in the background. Palate was slightly oily and slightly astringent. Sweet, but not as heavily so as other barleywines I’ve had. Some chocolate notes and a slight licorice aftertaste as it warmed a bit.

Amber and a bit unclear. Off-white head, mostly lasting. Sweet aroma, malt, caramel. Flavor starts sweet and finish moderate bitter. Syrup bitter.

Bottle. Pours a ruby brown body with a quickly diminishing head. Nice dark fruit flavor of raisin and grapes. The etoh makes it come off a bit vinous, a nice viscous mouthfeel very sweet. Good beer.

Pours ruby red with thick tan head. Aroma of malt and dark fruit. Taste is very sweet with heavy notes of dark fruits ,maybe plums. Big alcohol finish. Decent.

Reddish brown. Smooth, sweet malty aroma with stewed plums. Taste is heavy and sweet, almost cloyingly so, full of dark, figgy fruitiness, alcohol, and black, chewy liquorice. There’s a thick, lingering dryness at the finish. Should have kept this one for Christmas.
